In California have an apartment with a roommate, just recently got married, husband is in the military and in Virginia, he wants me to move to Virginia in April and my lease is not up until November - our apartment won't let us sub-lease and if I want out they said I have to pay a lot of money to get out.
I have a copy of his orders and my marriage license.
What do you suggest I can do?

All states allow for breaking a lease due to military deployment. Check with the California Tenant rules to see how much notice you need to give. But there should be no problem getting out of the lease.

Was she living with her husband at the time of deployment?

Hello s:

That is absolutely the dumbest thing anybody has ever said here.

In the first place you come here asking questions about the law. When you're told what the law is, YOU tell US what the law is, and you have the temerity to disagree with one of our experts...

I can't imagine what planet you're living on, if you think the law is designed to make a military family separate, and bear all the burdens that situation implies...

In addition, lying to us is never very helpful. First off this problem is with YOU, and now it's your daughter... Why would you lie to us?? I can see lying to somebody you KNOW, or somebody who is looking you in the eyes... but to strangers on the INTERNET??

Oh, well. I'm ready for my reddie, and I'll wear it proudly.

Yes, I would give the landlord a copy of the orders and even if it is not the "law" if you let them believe it is, they may not know if it is or isn't.

In law, faking the other person out is the first thing many try.

Next if they can not get out due to this clause, then they are stuck, you can't just break a lease to move.

So you can try and use this, or just write them a check.

All I did was ask a question no pun intended. So sorry to offend anyone. I will seek my attorney now. Thank you

Hmmm, you don't think giving a negative rating is not going to offend? You don't think lying to us is not going to offend?

You really need to think more before you act.
